Halifax

Halifax, the vibrant capital of Nova Scotia , is one of Canada’s most welcoming Atlantic destinations. Known for its rich maritime heritage and lively waterfront, Halifax blends historic charm with modern urban energy.

At the heart of the city, the iconic Halifax Citadel National Historic Site rises above the harbor, a star-shaped fort completed in the 1850s that offers sweeping views of the coastline. Along the waterfront, the Historic Properties showcase beautifully restored 19th-century warehouses — once home to merchants and privateers during the War of 1812 — and today filled with boutique shops, pubs, and restaurants serving fresh Atlantic seafood.

But Halifax isn’t just about history. It’s a thriving cultural and business hub, known for its friendly locals, buzzing nightlife, and a music scene that rivals cities twice its size. Just a short drive from downtown, you’ll discover rugged coastlines, sandy beaches, and the world-famous Peggy’s Cove lighthouse, one of the most photographed spots in Canada.

Halifax is more than a stopover. It’s a place where the past and present meet on the edge of the Atlantic.
